Research on Camouflage Recognition in Simulated Operational Environment Based on Hyperspectral Imaging Technology

Hyperspectral imaging technology can obtain the spatial information and spectral information of the simulated operational background and its camouflage materials at the same time and identify and classify them according to their differences. In this paper, we collected the hyperspectral images (400–...

Description
Summary:Hyperspectral imaging technology can obtain the spatial information and spectral information of the simulated operational background and its camouflage materials at the same time and identify and classify them according to their differences. In this paper, we collected the hyperspectral images (400–1000 nm) of the desert background, jungle background, desert camouflage netting, jungle camouflage netting, and jungle camouflage clothing through the hyperspectral imaging system, and the samples were preprocessed by denoising and black-and-white correction. Then, we analysed the region of interest (ROI) of the training samples by principal component analysis (PCA). After the pixels in the region of interest and their surrounding areas were averaged, 60% of the data was used as the training samples, and the remaining 40% was used as the test samples. According to their similarities and differences between them and referenced spectrum, the models of classification were established by combining the Naive Bayes (NB) algorithm, K-nearest neighbour (KNN) algorithm, random forest (RF) algorithm, and support vector machine (SVM) algorithm. The results show that among the four models, SVM model has the highest accuracy of classification and the recognition rate of jungle camouflage clothing is the highest. This study verifies the scientific and feasibility of hyperspectral imaging technology for camouflage identification and classification in a simulated operational environment, which has some practical significance.
